Wien placed first in ”World’s Greenest Cities” ranking

Resonance Consultancy’s new index of the world’s greenest cities praised the diversity of green areas in Wien, ranging from the English landscaped gardens such as the City Park to the national park located directly on the city’s borders.

„Vienna is also the European benchmark for public transit, with almost half of the city’s population holding an annual transit pass—and using it religiously”, says the study.

Top 10 ”Green Cities”

  1. Vienna, Austria
  2. Munich, Germany
  3. Berlin, Germany

  5. Sao Paulo, Brazil
  6. Manchester, Great Britain
  7. Lisbon, Portugal
  8. Singapore
